A thin film transistor array panel includes a substrate, a first gate line and a second gate line formed on the substrate, a storage electrode line between the first gate line and the second gate line, a data line intersecting the first gate line and the second gate line, a first thin film transistor connected to the first gate line and the data line, at least one color filter formed on the first thin film transistor, wherein the color filter comprises a first portion adjacent the first gate line with respect to the storage electrode line, a second portion adjacent the second gate line with respect to the storage electrode line, and a first connection connecting the first portion and the second portion and having a narrower width than that of the first and second portions, a first sub-pixel electrode formed on the color filter and connected to the first thin film transistor, and a second sub-pixel electrode facing the first sub-pixel electrode with respect to a gap, wherein at least one of an edge of the first sub-pixel electrode and an edge of the second sub-pixel electrode crosses over the first connection of the color filter, the edge of the first sub-pixel electrode, and the edge of the second sub-pixel electrode defining the gap between the first sub-pixel electrode and the second sub-pixel electrode.
